Not sure if this is the same or not, it seems to have been rebranded as Hoppy Baby sharky and is 5.2% It’s a good looking opaque gold with a dense soapy looking off-white head of foam. It’s got a delicious hop bouquet featuring zesty citrus with mild evergreen pine. The taste is an invigorating fresh pine bitterness with a bit of a bite to it and mint as well as ugh the citrus notes in the aftertaste. My favorite among the three beers I had at the Kyoto Craft Beer Garden though admittedly Tango Craft still has a ways to go

Draught at Craft Beer Live 2014. This seems to be a collaboration with Chateau Kamiya. Dry, lemony nose, crackers and some sulfur. Cloudy gold with lace. Fruity, tangy lemon flavor, some grapefruit and still a touch of sulfur. Decent.
